Dear Sugar: dealing with grief

[liv]

moominmuppet linked to this advice column at Rumpus. I know the community guidelines say to post the whole thing here, but it's seriously long (approx four thousand words), so I hope you will be willing to click through. It is also triggering as hell: it contains miscarriage, eating disorders, child abuse, and rape (alluded to, but not graphically described).

( my reactions, including some extensive and potentially triggering quotes from the column )

So, I'm conflicted. What do you make of it?
